Dahham abdoakrash@hotmail.com Nanocomposites Ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA) Montmorillonite (MMT) Link to publisher's homepage at https://www.matec-conferences.org/ The viability of nanocomposites comprising Ethyl Vinyl Acetate (EVA) filled montmorillonite (MMT) nanoclay as candidate materials of biomedical devices was investigated. EVA/MMT nanocomposites were prepared by incorporating the ratios 0, 1, 3 and 5% of organoclay MMT to EVA copolymer. In vitro biostability of the neat EVA and EVA nanocomposites was compared and assessed by exposing the materials to oxidizing and hydrolytic agents for 4 weeks at 37°C. The thermal properties of the neat EVA and EVA nanocomposites nanoclay filled were studied by using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). TGA results indicate that the EVA nanocomposite sample containing 1 wt% MMT exhibits higher Tonset and significant reduction in the rate of mass loss as compared to the neat EVA and other nanocomposites. 2020-11-16T02:13:34Z 2020-11-16T02:13:34Z 2016 Article MATEC Web Conferences, vol.78, 2016, 5 pages 2261-236X (online) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/68725 https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/20167801074 en 2nd International Conference on Green Design and Manufacture 2016 (IConGDM 2016); EDP Sciences
